When therecording device 100 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, therecording device 100 stores the recorded program in alocal storing unit 50 temporarily, and caches and transmits the record program in thelocal storing unit 50 to thenetwork storage device 200 when therecording device 100 reconnects with thenetwork storage device 200, to avoid loss of the recorded program. Therecording device 100 can be a television, or a computer, for example. In the embodiment, therecording device 100 is a television. - The
recording device 100 includes aninput unit 10, asetting unit 20, atimer 30, arecording unit 40, alocal storage unit 50, and acontrol unit 60. Therecording device 100 further includes adetection unit 70 and atransmission unit 80. Thetransmission unit 80 intercommunicates with thenetwork storage device 200. - The
input unit 10 receives manual operations and generates instructions for controlling therecording device 100. Theinput unit 10 can be buttons/keys, or a touch panel mounted on a housing of therecording device 100. Theinput unit 10 can also be a remote control fitting for therecording device 100. - The setting
unit 20 sets recording parameters in response to manual operations. The recording parameters include the desired channel corresponding to the to-be-recorded TV program, a start time S and an end time T for recording the to-be-recorded TV program, a segment condition, storing name and storing address of the to-be-recorded TV program.FIG. 2 shows that thesetting unit 30 includes a channel-setting module 210, a time-setting module 220, a segment-setting module 230, a name-setting module 240, and an address-setting module 250. The channel-setting module 210 provides a channel list including a number of channels, for example, an electric program guide (EPG), for allowing users to select the desired channel. The time-setting module 220 sets the start time S and the end time T for recording the to-be-recorded TV program. The segment-setting module 230 allows users to set the segment condition. The segment condition can include a time period and a file size value. In one embodiment, the time period may be 10 minutes, and the file size value may be 10 megabytes. The name-setting module 17 sets the storing name of the segment files, such as, 001, a1, and b1 for example. When the storing name is set, the segment files could be displayed in turn with 001, 002, 003 . . . , or a1, a2, a3 . . . , or b1, b2, b3 . . . . When thetransmission module 80 communicates with thenetwork storage device 200, the address-setting module 250 sets the storing address to be thenetwork storage device 200. When thetransmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, the address-setting module 250 sets the storing address to be thelocal storage device 50. - The
recording unit 40 records the to-be-recorded TV program according to the recording parameters. In detail, therecording unit 40 switches to the desired channel set by the channel-setting module 210, and further records the to-be-recorded TV program when the time timed by thetimer 30 reaches the start time S. When recording the TV program, the recording module 14 records the TV program according to the segment condition of the parameters. For example, if a segment condition is set to be 10 minutes, the TV program is recorded for 10 minutes and is named 001 (a1). The next TV program then starts to record for 10 minutes, and is named 002 (a2). When the last TV program is less than 10 minutes, but time reaches the end time T, therecording module 40 also stops recording, and records the last TV program as an individual segment. All the segment files can be stored in thelocal storing unit 50 or the network storing unit named 001, 002, 003 . . . , or a1, a2, a3 . . . . - The
local storing unit 50 stores the recording parameters and the segment files. In one embodiment, the segment files are listed in turn. The local storing device can be a built-in storing medium, or an external storing device electrically connected to therecording device 100. In the embodiment, the local storage device is a built-in storing medium housed in therecording device 100. - The
detection unit 70 detects whether thetransmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200. When thetransmission module 80 connects with thenetwork storage device 200, thedetection unit 70 generates a first signal to thecontrol unit 60. Thecontrol unit 60 responses the first signal and transmits the recorded TV program to thenetwork storage device 200 in real time via thetransmission unit 80. - When the
transmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, thedetection unit 70 generates a second signal to thecontrol unit 60. Thecontrol unit 60 responds to the second signal and stores the recorded program to thelocal storing unit 50. When thedetection unit 70 detects that thetransmission module 80 is reconnected with thenetwork storage device 200, thedetection unit 70 generates another first signal to thecontrol unit 60. Thecontrol unit 60 transmits the TV program recorded by therecording unit 40 in real time to thenetwork storage device 200, and further receives and transmits the recorded TV program stored in thelocal storing device 50 to thenetwork storage device 200 simultaneously. As a result, during the recording process of the TV program, when thetransmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, the recorded TV program is stored in thelocal storing device 50, and then is transmitted to thenetwork storage device 200 when thetransmission module 80 reconnects with thenetwork storage device 200. Whereby the loss of the recorded TV program is avoided. Furthermore, after the recorded TV program that has been stored in thelocal storing unit 50 is transmitted to thenetwork storage device 200, thecontrol unit 60 deletes the recorded TV program that has been transmitted to thenetwork storage device 200 to save storage space of thelocal storing unit 50. - When the time timed by the
timer 30 reaches the end time T set by the time-setting module 220, therecording unit 40 stops recording the TV program. -
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating one embodiment of a method for recording a TV program. The method is implemented by therecording device 100 communicating with thenetwork storage device 200. The method includes the following steps: - In step S310, the
setting module 20 sets the recording parameters in response to manual operations. The recording parameters includes the desired channel corresponding to the to-be-recorded program, a start time S and an end time T for recording the to-be-recorded program, the size of each section of the to-be-recorded program, storing name and address of the to-be-recorded program. In one embodiment, the recording parameters include at least an address of thenetwork storage device 200. - In step S320, the
recording unit 40 records the to-be-recorded program according to the recording parameters in real time, and thecontrol unit 60 transmits the recorded program to thenetwork storage device 200 via thetransmission unit 80. - In step S330, the detection unit detects whether the
transmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200. When thetransmission module 80 stays connected with thenetwork storage device 200, the procedure returns to step S320. When thetransmission module 80 is disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, the procedure goes to step S340. - In step S340, the
control unit 60 stores the recorded program to thelocal storing unit 50. - In step S350, during the recorded program being stored to the
local storing unit 50, thedetection unit 70 further detects whether thetransmission module 80 reconnects with thenetwork storage device 200. When thetransmission module 80 reconnects with thenetwork storage device 200, the procedure returns to step S340. When thetransmission module 80 stays disconnected from thenetwork storage device 200, and the procedure goes to step S360. - In step S360, the
control unit 60 transmits the TV program recorded by therecording unit 40 in real time to thenetwork storage device 200, and further caches and transmits the recorded TV program stored in thelocal storing device 50 to thenetwork storage device 200 simultaneously. - In step S370, the
control unit 60 determines whether the time timed by the timer reaches the end time set by the time-settingmodule 220. When the time reaches the end time, the procedure ends. When the time does not reach the end time, the procedure returns to step S320. - Although information as to, and advantages of, the present embodiments have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structures and functions of the present embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only; and changes may be made in detail, especially in the matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the present embodiments to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
